Chapter 277: The Majesty of the King of Shu (1)

"Little Wang is my father's son. That seat originally belongs to all of us, why should a cowardly person sit there?" Lu Ke looked at Cen Wenwen who did not hide his ambition at all, his eyes were shining, and he snorted coldly.

He said: "My father fought bloody battles and worked hard to build such a country. How can we expand our ancestral heritage if we leave it in his hands?"

"Your Majesty naturally has his reasons for choosing people. It is not for me and other ministers to comment." Cen Wenwen showed a slight embarrassment on his face. I have to say that although Lu Ke's words were very disrespectful, he had to

There is a certain truth to what this son said. Lu Chengzu is also of the blood of the emperor, but this son is only the master of preservation. The Tang Dynasty is in his hands, and it is uncertain whether he can hold it, but if he wants to carry it forward, then

Obviously it is impossible. But this matter was decided by Lu Zhaoci after all. The position of the prince is related to the foundation of the country and cannot be easily overturned by anyone. Even if Cen Wenwen objects in his heart, he is powerless.

"Sir Cen, before Mr. Xiao passed away, he once told Xiao Wang that if there is any undecided matter, please ask Mr. Cen for advice. Mr. Cen, please also ask Mr. Cen for the sake of Mr. Xiao's loyalty, please give Mr. Lu some advice.

Ke, Lu Ke can't thank you enough." When Lu Ke saw Cen Wenwen's silent expression, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of sadness on his face, and sighed: "To be honest, it doesn't matter whether Xiao Wang is the prince or not, everyone outside says

I, Lu Ke, have the blood of two families. I am afraid that after I, Lu Ke, inherit the throne, I will severely attack the family that betrayed the former Sui Dynasty, so I prevent Xiao Wang from entering the middle palace. Hehe, if I, Lu Ke, have such thoughts, I will be damned.

Lei Hong. Xiao Wang really doesn’t want the empire that my father has worked so hard to build to be ruined by my younger brother. Hey, even though Cui Renshi is known as the uncle of His Highness the Crown Prince, regardless of whether he is an uncle or not, he is just an auxiliary minister, and the minister is

Minister, how can you make decisions for His Highness the Crown Prince! If this continues, will this Tang Dynasty still have the surname Lu? Hehe, I am afraid that he may follow the example of Yang Jian or his father, and kick him away at the right time.

I’m Lu! I make it myself..."

"Your Highness, be careful!" Cen Wenwen's expression suddenly changed, and he finally couldn't help shouting angrily: "Your Highness, with your personality, how can you compete for a big position? Hehe, once this matter reaches other people's ears, they will join you.

A charge of falsely accusing a minister, you should know that alienating a monarch and his ministers is also a serious crime, it is enough to demote your King of Shu to a county prince."

"So what?" A trace of disdain appeared on Lu Ke's face.

"Your Highness, do you know this water?" Cen Wenwen took a deep breath, pointed to the flowing water on one side and said: "No one in the world is softer than water, and no one who attacks the strong can defeat it. Generally speaking, there are many successful people.

It is the weakness that defeats the strong. Your Majesty, you can imagine your Majesty back then. Although Your Majesty held military power, he was actually in a weak position. Therefore, Li Yuan could deprive Your Majesty of his military power at any time and could constantly plot against Your Majesty. However, Your Majesty did not

He had the last laugh. This is why because His Majesty could bear it, he could have married Lady Li Sanni, but Li Yuan refused, so he had to marry Lady Li. Did Your Majesty ever complain? No, His Majesty never complained in front of Li Yuan.

When he attacked Liu Wuzhou, Li Yuan once ordered His Majesty to arrive at Huoyi City in five days. This was obviously a plot against His Majesty, but did His Majesty complain? No, he attacked the five cities in five days and defeated Liu Wuzhou. After His Majesty returned to Beijing, he was deeply moved.

In the shallow end, in the hidden world, you sit and watch the success or failure of the world, and finally decide the country. Your Majesty knows the way of the water. Your Highness, you are the same now. The prince has entered the East Palace. With great righteousness, Your Highness acts accordingly.

Be cautious. Don’t try to force everything.”….

"Xiao Wang, thank you for your advice." Lu Ke's heart moved when he heard this. He looked deeply at Cen Wenwen, as if he wanted to put Cen Wenwen into his heart. After a while, he bowed deeply to Cen Wenwen. How could he not know that Cen Wenwen

The meaning of the words in the text is clearly that he wants Lu Ke to agree to the marriage and marry Tuli's daughter so that he can contribute to the court. He must even be cautious in doing things in the future, otherwise it will not be said that big things will not happen, and even things will happen.

Like the former Li family, even his life could not be saved. For a moment, Lu Ke seemed to understand Cen Wenwen's thoughts, and a trace of deep disappointment suddenly appeared on his face. He originally thought that this person had such a big relationship with the Jiangzuo family.

The minister of relations, the most important minister in the dynasty, will give him a good idea. Even if he doesn't want to participate in the battle for the legitimate son, it is good to be able to guide him through this difficulty. Unfortunately, this person

I suggest that you agree to this marriage. If this were other matters, Lu Ke might be able to agree or compromise, but this is not possible. Once he marries Ashina Yun, he may have to go to the Turkic Empire.

Grassland, even if you don't go to the grassland, the ministers in the court will probably not support a prince who is a Turkic princess to ascend to the throne. Therefore, Cen Wenwen's move is not actually a good idea for Lu Ke

The idea is even the same as not being mentioned.

"It would be best if His Highness could hear it from his heart." Cen Wenwen seemed not to see the dissatisfaction on Lu Ke's face, but said with a smile: "Your Highness's move is not only beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, but also to himself.

Ah! Your Majesty must be very happy that His Highness can have such filial piety, so I would like to congratulate Your Highness on the return of the beauty that I can hold in my arms from now on. Haha!"

"Sir, you are joking." The cloud on Lu Ke's face became heavier, but he did not dare to get angry when facing Cen Wenwen. A wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your advice, it's getting late today.

Xiao Wang takes his leave first." After saying that, he stood up and prepared to walk out.

"Okay, I will not keep Your Highness here." Cen Wenwen also stood up and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is brave and wise, and he can rule the world with the three-foot sword in his hand, but in fact, such a person is lonely. Your Majesty

Although I am aloof, what I like most is family harmony! I heard that His Majesty always chooses to have dinner in Kunning Palace every night. All the concubines and princes in the palace are all gathered together. It is so harmonious and beautiful! It makes people envious just thinking about it.

"

"What the boss said is true." Lu Ke was depressed at this time. He had no time to pay attention to Cen Wenwen's seemingly ordinary words. He had already prepared to go back and break off the marriage. He didn't bother Cen Wen at all.

Taking Wen Wen's words to heart, he spread his legs and walked out. Cen Wen Wen saw clearly and could only sigh secretly in his heart.

"Father, how was the conversation?" Cen Wenwen had just returned to the hall when he saw Cen Qing Yingtingting walking over, supporting Cen Wenwen and asked.

"In some places this boy resembles Your Majesty, but in other places he is far away from Your Majesty. I thought that based on this boy's intelligence, he would be able to understand what I meant. Unfortunately, he has been confused by that seat.

, I don’t know what I mean at all. I don’t know the truth that taking a small step back today can lead to a big step forward in the future. It’s a pity for such a person.” Cen Wenwen sighed.

"Father, if His Royal Highness the King of Shu really gets married to the Turkic princess, will he still have a chance to become the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?" Cen Qingying couldn't help but ask.

"Hmph, if he doesn't get married, he will never be able to become the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. If he gets married, there may still be a glimmer of hope." Cen Wenwen sneered and said, "Although in the eyes of outsiders, if he marries a Turkic princess, he will never be the crown prince.

Will stay away from government affairs, hum, that is also normal. Who is today? Today is the most unruly person. How could he care about this kind of thing? If the king of Shu marries a Turkic princess, on the one hand, he can use the Turks in the future

To use his power, and more importantly, in the heart of His Majesty, he has gained even more points. Although Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and even many princes are powerful characters, it is obviously nothing yet, but in the future. Watch! The princes will seize the throne.

It is impossible to end the matter. At that time, what matters is not the size of one's own strength, nor who is more wise and powerful, but who is the most filial. Therefore, as a father today, I will ask His Highness the King of Shu to start from this aspect.

It's a pity that His Highness the King of Shu is so angry that he can't listen at all. This is the most pitiful thing. All my hard work has been in vain. It's a pity that if Old Master Xiao is not dead, he may be able to persuade me."

….

"Since father knows so much, why doesn't he explain it to His Highness?" Cen Qingying asked in surprise.

"It's enough for me to say so much. If I say more, I'm afraid His Majesty will cause trouble for me." Cen Wenwen touched Cen Qingying's head and said: "Qingying, do you know who you trust the most today?

?”.

"Of course it's my father." Cen Qingying said curiously.

"There are also Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui." Cen Wenwen said with a smile: "The reason why the Emperor trusts us is not because we are capable and loyal to His Majesty, but more importantly, we people never care about the royal family's private affairs. This Prince Li

The matter is a private matter of the royal family. As a minister, you should not get involved in it, which may easily lead to party disputes. Who is Your Majesty? How could he allow party disputes? Although such party disputes are inevitable, at least they must be controlled within the scope permitted by Your Majesty.

If we, the important officials of the Xuande Palace, are involved in this, it may cause turmoil in the court, and the world will be uneasy, and your Majesty will not allow it."

"What about this time, Your Highness, King of Shu?" A trace of regret suddenly appeared on Cen Qingying's face.

"Don't worry! Tiger poison doesn't eat its seeds. Your Majesty is the founder of the country and cherishes his own feathers. How could he do such a thing? I'm afraid that by then, this King of Shu will still be unable to escape the end of the marriage." Cen Wenwen sighed.

He took a breath, shook his head, and said regretfully: "However, by then, the effect will be different."

Let's say that Lu Ke came out of Cen Wenwen's house, his brows were furrowed, his handsome face was full of gloom, and there was a faint anger all over his body. When Wu Yan, who accompanied him, saw this, he was secretly shocked, but he did not dare to speak.

"Wu Yan, you said that there are many children in the family, and each one is trying to compete for the position of succeeding the head of the family. But the heir has already appeared, so how can the remaining children seize this position?" On the carriage, Lu Ke

Suddenly he asked Wu Yan calmly beside him.

"Of course, I have to perform better than the heir. Only..." Wu Yan was about to continue, but as if he thought of something, he stopped quickly and looked at Lu Ke with wide eyes, a look of horror.

Come on. Although he is a warrior, he serves the current royal family. How could he not know that within the royal family, the competition for the position of prince is becoming increasingly prominent. What Lu Ke said just now was referring to the family of the current Emperor Zhenguan?

Wu Yan wished he could sew his mouth shut at this moment. If time could go back, Wu Yan might not be able to say what he just said if he was beaten to death.

"Yes, you are right." Lu Ke seemed not to see Wu Yan's embarrassed and frightened look, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "You are right, what you said is right, as long as you behave better

He is better than him, wiser than him, and more capable than him. I think my father sees it in his eyes and remembers it in his heart, so he naturally makes comparisons. The inheritance of the country and the country is not a simple matter. It is not about whose mother is the queen, who is the queen.

He can inherit the throne. How can a cowardly king inherit this picturesque country?"

Not to mention that Lu Ke was whispering silently in the car and ignored Wu Yan's pale face. On this day, the second peace talks between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks began in Wuying Hall. It's just that this time is different from the previous one.

Among the people participating in the peace talks, there was once again a young man with a heroic appearance and a resemblance to the emperor of the day. It was Lu Ke, the famous King of Shu in Chang'an City.

"Master Dou, is there no one left in your country? Look, a businessman can serve as the main minister of the peace talks. There are actually two young men in the peace talks team. Tsk tsk. I heard that there were countless virtuous people in the Tang Dynasty.

When we meet today, is it possible that you, a lowly businessman, and two young boys who are still young are also talented? How ridiculous!" As soon as they entered the hall and the two parties sat down, Bo Tie glanced at the Tang Dynasty peace talks team opposite.

, but seeing another unfamiliar young man, he couldn't help laughing, his words full of sarcasm...

Dou Yi heard a wry smile on his face. Regardless of whether what the other party said was the truth or not, the fact is the fact. There are two more young boys in the peace talks team. It's just that these two boys have noble status. Although they are young,

But he is always sent by His Majesty to practice.

"Shangguo naturally has its rules. In our Tang Dynasty, there are outstanding people everywhere, and talents are endless. Although we are young, we also know the way of saints and the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period. With you barbarians,

Peace talks are enough with us freshmen, so why bother with the elders? What's more, Bo Tie, you are just a prairie barbarian. If we, the virtuous people of the Tang Dynasty, want to have peace talks with you, wouldn't it be helpful?

Do you have a share?" At this moment, a clear and childish voice came from the crowd. Everyone looked over and saw a handsome young man standing up and facing his face coldly.

The post said. His eyes were like cold stars, his handsome face was covered with ice, and there was a hint of sarcasm in the corner of his mouth. Everyone knew that this boy was Lu Ke, the current King of Shu. Everyone's expressions changed, Dou Yi

There was even a look of surprise on his face. He knew the purpose of the two princes coming, and during the previous peace talks, His Majesty the Crown Prince did exactly what His Majesty ordered him to do, sitting there motionless.

He came with a pair of ears and did not make any remarks at all, which made Dou Yi relax a lot. But what he didn't expect was that this time there was a King of Shu. I thought that this King of Shu was older and should be more obedient.

Lord, I didn’t expect that this man would be so bold. He started to angrily criticize Bo Tie just after the peace talks began, and his words were even more sarcastic. This was different from the original discussion! Dou Yi couldn’t help but reveal a trace of his face when he saw this.

He looked anxious, but he didn't dare to speak. Who was facing him? He was the current King of Shu. His status was far above that of Dou Yi, so what qualifications did Dou Yi have to speak?

"Oh! I didn't expect that there is another minister for peace talks here. I don't know what to call him?" Bo Tie was secretly angry when he heard this. A pair of eagle eyes coldly glanced at Lu Ke opposite him, but he was thinking in his mind.

Who is the young man opposite, who is so presumptuous?

"King of Shu, Lu Ke." Lu Ke had already made up his mind to show his wisdom and martial prowess to both the government and the public. Naturally, he completely forgot what Cen Wenwen said and was determined to show off his majesty in this peace negotiation.

Come. Let Lu Zhaoci let the ministers in the world see who is the best candidate for the crown prince in the world today.

"Oh, it turns out to be His Royal Highness, the famous King of Shu in Chang'an City. Bo Tie is rude." Bo Tie glanced at the two young men opposite, and his heart moved. He had vaguely guessed their identities, and even more so for Lu.

Zhao Ci was surprised by his calculations. At a young age, his sons were allowed to see the disputes between countries so that they could grow up quickly. This kind of thing is probably something that only people like Lu Zhaoci can do. It is not difficult.

Imagine that with the increase of age and extraordinary knowledge, the royal family will be able to grow rapidly and be able to take over the country of the Tang Dynasty normally. Although this kind of training is very unkind, it is the best way for the empire to train successors.

One of the quickest and most effective methods.

"I didn't expect Master Botie to be so polite, which surprised Xiao Wang." Lu Ke came out and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang always thought that the Turks were barbarians and did not understand poetry and books.

I know etiquette, but when I saw him today, I felt that something was not true."

"Haha, don't be like this, young prince. From the Khans to the herdsmen, I, the Turks, all yearn for the civilization of the Central Plains. This time I came to the Central Plains to ask Your Majesty to send people to the grasslands to spread Han culture. I

The Turkic people are willing to live in harmony with the people of the Central Plains." Bo Tie said quickly, with the utmost kindness in his words.

"Yes!" Lu Ke said with a smile: "I'm afraid because of this, throughout the dynasties, the Turks have continued to raise troops southward, invade the Central Plains, burn my cities, seize my money, and plunder my people. This is probably why the Turks admire the Central Plains.

An example of civilization! I just don’t know where the Central Atomic people who were plundered by the Turks are now? Could you please tell me?"
